Ok, so it's official. The new year has begun (I know, I'm a little late), and I have officially moved into my new apartment in Chicago. This can only mean one thing (queue inevitable doom music): it's time for my Paleo Challenge to begin!
I have taken before pictures, which, I can smugly say, will not be published until the Challenge is complete. Who wants to see those anyway? Not unless there is something bigger and better to look at in contrast (or should it be smaller and better?).
I have been shopping, and I have "filled" my cavernous fridge with Paleo foods (and by filled, I mean lightly stocked with enough space to still fit the frozen food section at Trader Joe's). I hate buying more than I can eat within a relatively short amount of time. Too many options makes things more difficult. (I mean, who doesn't have a hard time selecting an entree at The Claim Jumper?)
I have located a local box, and I have an intro appointment set for Wednesday evening. Atlas CrossFit, ready or not, here I come. I will keep you posted on my impressions, but I haven't seen enough to have one, yet.
Now, I just have to decide how long this Challenge will last. I think a Whole 30 is in order. Back to back. I will allow a cheat day at the end of the 30 days, but that is it! Think I can do it? Me neither. (Queue more doom music.) My goal is to keep an honest food journal on this site, so you can follow my progress along with me. In this way, hopefully, I will be more accountable to myself.
Alright, starting tomorrow -- day 1. Here goes nothin'!
